Go down to where it says 'WPS-2750 Field Test' and click it.
Does Voice, Wail, Whoop and another voice.
Voice says: "This is a test of the St. James Parish Emergency Warning System. This is a test and only a test."

The voice is clear for being almost a half mile away. Good find. Quicktime is required to play the video.

I must have an older version of QT, as I didn't see the siren in the video, just got the audio.
I like how it went straight from Wail into Whoop. That was cool!
There is a thunderbolt siren in my head, it is always going off...

I have Quicktime 7.2 and it worked fine for me.

I haven't seen this video in a really long time, this was one of the first Whelen videos I have ever seen... this was from back in the day way before Youtube and such so seeing a video was a huge deal. This was the Safetycom video that everyone used to talk about!!

Sounds like they are going for the same high pitch as the newest 2001's.

This is probably what the Cannon Beach, Oregon mooing tsunami sirens would sound like in the event of a real tsunami, since Cannon Beach has either 2750's or 2760's.
